On Aug. 3, at approximately 2:45 pm, Neepawa RCMP were patrolling highway 16, east of Neepawa and came across a westbound vehicle that appeared to be swerving. Police conducted a roadside stop to check driver sobriety. A lone female in the vehicle displayed signs of intoxication and was arrested. The female provided two samples of breath and the results found that she was three times over the legal limit. Teresa Rozema of Calgary was charged with Impaired Operation of Motor Vehicle. Rozema appeared in Brandon court the following day and received a fine of $1,950 and a 15 month Canada wide driving prohibition.

Photos by Kira Paterson. Some of Kim’s work is inspired by her rural home that she has grown to love since moving from a big city in Korea. Most of her paintings are based on animals, landscapes or photos she’s taken on her travels.
The September exhibit at the Manawaka gallery in ArtsForward is officially open for the month. Miyoung Kim, of Neepawa, normally paints for friends and family, but has her art on public display for the first time.
Kim was formally trained in ceramics, but she has been working with acrylic paints more to challenge herself. She does have two ceramic vases on display at the exhibit this month, as well. ArtsForward is hosting an opening reception where people can meet Miyoung Kim and hear more about the pieces from the artist herself. The opening is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 7 at 7 pm.
